Original & Mineral 3-Step Hair Facial for the Win

Weekends seem to fill up faster in the summer than any other time of year. I guess it's easier to get inspired to leave your home and do something when the sun in shining than when going out requires boots, hats, and the gloves that you've already misplaced at least one of. Despite the summer weekend phenomenon, I found myself with a whole blissful day of nothing to do a few weeks ago. As soon as I was able to tear myself off the couch where I'd been hypnotized by the first day of the Olympics, I readied myself for the mission I'd been waiting to complete all week: the Original & Mineral 3-Step Hair Facial.

The 3-Step Facial I tested out included the Original & Mineral Original Detox Shampoo, Maintain the Mane Shampoo, and Maintain the Mane Conditioner. The Detox Shampoo applies like using any other shampoo, but provides deep cleansing to the scalp with ingredients targeted at reducing build up caused by things like natural oils, hair products and chlorine. The detox shampoo suggests following up with a second shampoo for additional cleansing and extra shine, so I applied the Maintain the Mane shampoo immediately after, followed by the Maintain the Mane conditioner. The Maintain the Mane products, like the whole Original & Mineral line, are made with natural extracts and active minerals with ingredients like Evening Primrose, Macadamia, and Australian Banksia Flower.

I let my hair air dry as I watched Team USA's women's basketball game on fast forward until the last two minutes of the game (in my opinion, the best part of most sporting events). The end result was immensely shiny, bouncy hair and a win for Team USA. Original & Mineral products are now available in the US; check out OriginalMineral.com to find out where products are sold.
